    Nora lost her red mitten on the way to school. She looked in her bag and under her desk, but it was gone. At recess she saw a little boy with one red mitten on his hand and one bare, shaking hand. Nora almost said, “That is mine!” Then she looked at his cold fingers. The next day she brought him her other red mitten. “Now you have a pair,” she said.

  2. Why did Nora not say the mitten was hers? Use words from the story.

  3. What kind of person is Nora? Give a reason from the story.
